Florida State recently learned that there is still an opportunity to submit nominations for the 2026 Florida TaxWatch Government Productivity Awards through July 15, 2026.
The awards recognize State employees and teams whose innovations, process improvements, or accomplishments have resulted in greater efficiency, effectiveness, or savings in government operations. Winners are recognized by Florida TaxWatch and receive both a commemorative award and, in some cases, a cash prize.
Individuals or teams that have led an initiative worthy of consideration are encouraged to submit a nomination via the online nomination form<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Ffloridataxwatch.org%2Fgovernment-productivity-awards-nomination-form%2F&data=05%7C02%7Chrms%40lists.fsu.edu%7Cf0941ae3c8e944f243ea08dedd2371ea%7Ca36450ebdb0642a78d1b026719f701e3%7C0%7C0%7C639191341531228531%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=dYHgfP%2Ff92UOIealzEq%2F%2BZU0tct3FA0%2FZwSYJ4MVjoo%3D&reserved=0> by July 15, 2026.
